- I am beginning to doubt the capabilities of the standard serial hardware
- in the RS6000. I also have a modem connected to one of the available
- serial ports with DTE rate locked at 38400, however throughput on a V32bis
- connection is lousy at 700cps.

- Have you set up the serial port for RTS/CTS also ?
- This can be achieved by - stty add rts < /dev/tty?
